Best Answer

first you can add as many zeros at the end of the decimal as you want so make both have the same number of places after the decimal. 0.5 becomes 0.50

Then 1 place after the decimal is read as tenths, 2 places is hundredths, 3 places is thousandths, etc.

So read 0.50 as 50 hundredths, 0.33 is 33 hundredths. Which is larger 50 or 33?

0.5 is greater
